Channel One News getting sloppy.

October 3, 2017

From Jim Metrock: Channel One News is a taped show. Even though there is less pressure with a canned program, mistakes pop up on the program.  This may be because Channel One News is more about advertising than journalism.

Students watching Channel One News see U.S. Senator Bob Corker (R-Tenn) discussing the Russia investigation.  However, this isn’t Senator Corker.

Easy mistake: the man above is U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas).  The real Senator Corker is below.  Almost like twins, and of course, it’s confusing because both last names start with “Cor”.
